Ecological Society of America Announces Price Reduction for Online Access

The Ecological Society of America is pleased to announce a new pricing
structure for subscriptions to their journals Ecology, Ecological
Monographs, Ecological Applications, and Frontiers in Ecology and the
Environment.  Beginning in 2006, all library subscribers will receive
print-plus-online access for the same cost as print-only.  The result
means greater access to current, in-depth information on the environmental
and life sciences for patrons, at a rate sensitive to the needs of
budget-conscious librarians.  Former and current print-plus-online
subscribers at the medium and large institutional rates in particular
should find these changes a welcome relief, as these prices will be
dramatically lower than 2005, although all libraries should benefit.

On-line subscriptions for 2006 will also include access to ESA journal
archives dating back to January 1997.  Journals prior to 1997 are linked
through your JSTOR subscription. All journals are fully searchable, and
include links to other ESA articles, Ecological Archives and MedLine.

Already substantially less costly than commercial journals in the
ecological and life sciences, ESA�s journals provide students, faculty,
and researchers with the latest articles and peer-reviewed research in the
field.  Their ISI impact factor rating places them among the top primary
research journals in ecology; Ecology leads all journals reporting
original research findings in the field in total number of citations and
number of citations per dollar, and articles in Ecological Monographs are
cited more frequently than articles in any other ecological journal
publishing primary research papers.

More information on each of the individual journals is available at
www.esa.org.  For a 2006 price list, e-mail membership@esa.org or call
202-833-8773.
